Abstracts

Bogdan Obraz’s book Kyiv–Paris. In Search of Frozen Time is non-fiction literature. It is a written testimony of a young resident of Kiev, staying in the capital of France as a student and trainee. The text of this ego-document is a fusion of elements of various genres. The autobiographical reflections of the narrator-protagonist on his identity, his psychological introspection in the course of his walks with his partners in Paris are intertwined with the material of a guide to the two capitals, selected and structured by him. Moreover, the encyclopedism of copious data on the life of the two cities is striking in its abundance of descriptions of loci that were previously out of sight of the authors of books about Paris and Kyiv. Here, excerpts from an undated personal journal appear side by side with mini-essays about famous figures in the history of France and Ukraine, quotes from song, poetry and prose, references to the works of artists, films, performances – intertwined with texts by sociologists, market analysts, social psychologists, as non-fiction merges with fiction. All this contributes to the transformation of the declared genre forms in the book, and their contamination leads to the emergence of a new borderline genre.
